Making Time for Movement: Prioritising Mental Health Awareness

If you don’t make time for your wellness, you will be forced to make time for your illness

Tim Jackson, Head of Health, Safety, Wellbeing and Sustainability

In a world that often moves at breakneck speed, it’s easy to overlook the importance of taking moments for movement. At the Danny Sullivan Group, we understand the significance of mental health, not just during Mental Health Awareness Week, but every day.

As a leading supplier of skilled labor in the UK, we recognise that the well-being of our workforce is paramount. That’s why we’re committed to promoting a culture that encourages both physical and mental wellness. This year’s Mental Health Awareness Week theme, “Moments for Movement,” resonates deeply with us. We believe that taking the time to move your body is not just a necessity but a fun opportunity to connect with yourself and those around you.

It’s all too easy to get caught up in the hustle and bustle of daily life, but stopping to ask someone how they are can make a world of difference. And more importantly, it’s not about getting a response, but truly listening to what they have to say. If you’re struggling, we want you to know that it’s okay to reach out. Whether it’s to a friend, a family member, or a professional, there is always someone willing to lend an ear and offer support.

“If you don’t make time for your wellness, you will be forced to make time for your illness,” Tim Jackson, Head of Health, Safety, Wellbeing and Sustainability. That’s why we encourage everyone to prioritise their mental health, not just during this designated week, but as an ongoing commitment to self-care.

At DSG, we’re dedicated to fostering an environment where mental health is valued and supported. Let’s make movement a part of our daily lives, not just for our physical health, but for the well-being of our minds and bodies. Together, we are creating a culture of care and compassion.
